Shot‐Based Quantum Encoding: A Data‐Loading Paradigm for Quantum Neural Networks

Advanced Computing, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.
Shot‐based quantum encoding loads classical data without any encoding gates: a learned map turns each datum into a probability vector that dictates how many measurement shots start in each basis state, preparing a mixed state that a shallow variational circuit processes as a quantum perceptron layer.

Influence of Storage Time on Functional Bulk Properties of Low‐Pressure Oxygen/Argon Plasma Modified Polypropylene Fabric

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 33, September 5, 2026.
Treatment of polypropylene fabric in oxygen plasma was used to impart the fabric surface with more hydrophilic surface properties. Changes in bulk properties were minimal as the modification mainly affected the fabric surface. Bulk fabric properties water retention, moisture content and wicking were monitored over a period of 33 days.

The Origins of Fashion

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper reconceptualizes fashion as a deep‐time system of bodily communication rather than a byproduct of modern consumer societies. We define fashion as a socially transmitted system of bodily display in which patterned variation occurs within shared conventions of appearance.

Circular economy business strategies and public schemes: a game theory‐based survey

International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 2827-2869, September 2026.
Abstract This paper develops a selected survey based on game theory in circular economy (CE) by complementing two perspectives: the CE business strategies and the public schemes (PS) available to implement CE systems. These perspectives are concentrated in six CE business strategies (circular inputs, sharing platforms, product‐as‐a‐service (PaaS ...

A Case‐Control Study of Risk Factors for Scabies Among Patients Attending Dermatology Clinics in Afghanistan

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Scabies is a highly contagious parasitic skin disease and neglected tropical disease disproportionately affecting populations in poverty and fragile health systems. In Afghanistan, evidence on its environmental and socioeconomic determinants remains scarce.

Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Plantar Foot Microvascular Reactivity and Oxygenation in Type 2 Diabetes and Peripheral Artery Disease: An Exploratory Study

Microcirculation, Volume 33, Issue 6, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Microvascular dysfunction contributes to foot complications in type 2 diabetes (T2D) and peripheral artery disease (PAD), yet has been characterized primarily in non‐plantar regions. We evaluated microvascular reactivity and oxygenation at ulcer‐prone plantar sites and responses to combined heat therapy and intermittent pneumatic ...
